Another former United loanee, Tom Dallison, has also been on the move.

The 21-year-old defender, who played nine times for United while on loan in the first half of last season, has moved to Accrington on a six-month temporary deal along with Brighton & Hove Albion team-mate Tyler Forbes.

Although Forbes came off the bench as Stanley opened their League Two account with a 3-1 win at home to Colchester, Dallison had to settle for being an unused substitute.
